Abstract: Multimodal transport is transport that ensures successful transport operations. Peter Wolters, Deputy of the General Secretary of the European Association of Multimodal Transport, indicated that multimodal transport is "a lot of golden opportunities" and the "green" savings are feasible by optimizing the individual industrial processes, the partnerships and the transparency of information flows and, above all, by changing the way of thinking. The aim of this article is to present the efficient transport through multimodalism and the purpose of the article is focused on the development and achievement of the following objectives: the multimodalism benefits presentation, the structure and the classification criteria of multimodal transport. Through this article we try to emphasize that multimodalism is a superior form of transport that results from the harmonization of different modes of transport.
